Cannot get sensortile.box to appear as a probe in STM32CubeMonitor

[SSmit.4]

I have connected my sensortile.box (STEVAL-MKSBOX1V1) to my Mac via USB. I am following instructions here to try to display the sensortile.box as a probe (https://wiki.st.com/stm32mcu/wiki/STM32CubeMonitor:How_to_select_the_target) but it is not appearing in the list.

I think it may be a problem with STLINK. Do I need to purchase another device (e.g. ST-LINKv2 https://www.st.com/content/ccc/resource/technical/document/user_manual/65/e0/44/72/9e/34/41/8d/DM00026748.pdf/files/DM00026748.pdf/jcr:content/translations/en.DM00026748.pdf) and connect this to the sensortile.box?

Thanks,

Stephen.

Hi @SSmit.4​ , the SensorTile.box should be automatically detected as a mass storage device, when you connect it to your PC. But I'm not sure it is recognized directly as a probe from the STM32CubeMonitor... Are you using the STLINKV2 + adapter to connect the ST.box with your Mac? Regards

Hi @Eleon BORLINI​ The SensorTile.box is not showing up as a mass storage device when connected via USB. The ST.box is currently just directly connected to the Mac via USB. I do not currently have a STLINKV2 or any Nucleo device. I want to know if I need to have a separate STLINKV2 or Nucleo board (which has an onboard STLINK) to be able to get my ST.box to appear as a probe in the STM32CubeMonitor. Thanks.

Hi @SSmit.4​ , you could try with setting the Data recorder application on ST.box through the smartphone app ST BLE Sensor (available also on Apple Store): this app streams the sensors data on the USB. Once you have programmed your ST.box in this way, you can connect the ST.box to your PC and configurethe VCOM / USB settings on the STM32CubeMonitor. We will do some internal tests with this configuration in the next days and let you know. Regards

Hi @Eleon BORLINI​ - Thanks again for your reply. I have loaded the Data Recorder on the ST.box through the ST BLE Sensor app. Can you advise how I can "configure the VCOM / USB settings on the STM32CubeMonitor." I cannot see any settings options of this sort within the STM32CubeMonitor application on my Mac.

Regards.
